Let us look at that statement in the round. It has two conditions;puja joshi wrote:Notes:
You will meet the second requirement if at the time of your birth: (a) your mother was:
...
• a British subject before 1 January 1949 and was born in a British protectorate, protected state or United Kingdom trust territory; or
At a glance, you can see that you do not meet the third requirement. The third requirement required your mother, through your maternal grandfather, to have a connection by birth, naturalisation, adoption or registration with essentially the British Isles (minus Eire), not with any British colony, let alone protectorate.You will be entitled to registration if you meet all four of the below requirements:
1. you were born before 1 January 1983; and
2. you would have become a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if women had been able to pass on citizenship to their children in the same way as men at the time of your birth; and
3. you have right of abode which you acquired because:*Please note - registration does not include registration on the basis of a marriage on or after 28 October 1971 to a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies
- (i) your mother was, at the time of your birth, a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by birth, legal adoption, naturalisation or registration* in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands or Isle of Man; or
(ii) one of your mother’s parents (the definition of “parent” here excludes the father, but includes the mother, of an illegitimate child) was a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by birth, legal adoption, naturalisation or registration* in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands or Isle of Man at the time of her birth; or
(iii) one of your father’s parents (the definition of “father” and “parent” excludes the father of an illegitimate child) was a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by birth, legal adoption, naturalisation or registration* in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands or Isle of Man at the time of his birth; or
(iv) you were resident in the United Kingdom for a continuous period of 5 years before1983 and had become settled in the United Kingdom by the end of that 5 year period; or
(v) you are a woman who, before 1 January 1983, was or had been married to a man with the right of abode in the United Kingdom.

4. the Secretary of State is satisfied that you are of good character.

I think that's where the gravitas and canny wording of solicitors comes into play. I think people like yourself/Vinny/Obie could convince caseworkers too.secret.simon wrote:But let that not dissuade you. If you wish, you can apply and it is possible that the caseworker looking at your case may not understand the nuances of British statute law in those times and grant you British citizenship.
